Change your springs, wheel sizes or any number of other things that have been mentioned and...


(image changed from original to set a better example )

even harder than you would if you stuck around in H-Stock.

But if you're not in it to win it, it should be lots of fun.

These cars will crap on the fit. Mostly on one thing I'd think, expecialy the civic hatch and the 200 sx's. THese are both quite fast in stock class. I think a nice harness some pads and a catback though and the fit will be fun to beat up in stock class. I'm going to a test and tune in two weeks to try it out.
won't adding the catback move it out of the stock class though?

So, if I wanted to compete in Stock class, intake and suspension is all I can mod, right?

I've always wanted to go autocrossing. How well would an a/t Fit Sport do?

no.

here is a list of things you can change

Anything available on the exact model and year of your car as standard or optional equipment, as installed on the factory assembly line (nothing available only dealer-installed is allowed), plus
Standard OEM identical replacement parts
Accessories, gauges, appearance, comfort, and convenience items (not replacement driver's seat, though) that basically don't help
Added roll bar or roll cage to spec (not required, though)
Driver harness (no cutting seats to install, though)
Trailer hitch and/or tow bar mountings
Any wheel of diameter and width identical to a stock or factory optional wheel, offset within +- 0.25 inch
Most street legal tires that will fit the mounted wheels and stock bodywork
Any shock absorber of the same type and mounting as original; no change to standard spring mountings is allowed; suspension geometry may not be altered; gas or hydraulic shocks are permitted
Any brake linings; pre-1992 cars may use solid/braided metal brake lines.
Any front anti-roll bar (no change to stock/optional rear anti-roll bar, if present)
Manufacturer specified ignition settings only
Any replacement air filter element (or removal of air filter element); no plumbing changes, however
Engine bored no more than .020"; no balancing or porting/polishing of head
Replacement of any part of the exhaust system past the catalytic converter (if quiet)
Any oil filter
Added clutch scattershield
